Established in 1996 by Lily Nie and Joshua Zhong, the Joyous Chinese Cultural Center (JCCC)
exists to provide cultural and emotional support to adopted Chinese children and
to offer Chinese cultural and language education to children and adults of all backgrounds
in our communities and across the country.

Through its on-campus and long-distance learning programs, JCCC strives to:

Create a positive and culturally-relevant learning environment where Chinese language
and cultural education is fun and effective.

Nurture a strong sense of pride in the Chinese heritage and an interest and ability
to appreciate Chinese culture, language, art and history.
